6 – Basic Recording
Selecting the input source
This unit has two inputs (INPUT A/B) that can be
selected separately as input sources.
The built-in microphones (front panel MIC A/B) and
external input signals (input through the rear panel
INPUT A/B jacks) can be selected as input sources.
In addition to mic/line signals, you can input guitar
and bass through the INPUT A standard jack.
When connecting a guitar, set the MIC/LINE-GUITAR
switch on the back of the unit to GUITAR.
1. When the recorder is stopped, press the INPUT
SETTING/EQ/DYN button to open the
INPUT
SETTING
screen.
Use the
IN A
and
IN B
items to set the input
sources for INPUT A and INPUT B.
2. Use the F4 [A/B] button to select (highlight) the
INPUT A
or
INPUT B
setting, and turn the DATA
wheel to select the input source.

4. If a source that uses the INPUT A connector is
selected as the INPUT A input source in step 2
above, set the MIC/LINE-GUITAR switch on the
left side panel appropriately. Set it to GUITAR
when connecting an electric guitar or electric
bass directly. Set it to MIC/LINE when inputting a
mic or line signal.
TIP
When connecting an electric-acoustic guitar with
a built-in preamp or an active electric guitar, as
well as when connecting an electric guitar with
effect boxes between it and this unit, set the MIC/
LINE-GUITAR switch to MIC/LINE.
Phantom power
When connecting a condenser microphone that
requires phantom power, follow the procedures
below to turn phantom power ON. When ON,
phantom power is provided to both INPUT A and
INPUT B XLR jacks.
1. When the recorder is stopped, press the
PHANTOM button to open the
PHANTOM
screen.
2. Press the F4 [ON] button to turn phantom power
ON. The indicator above the PHANTOM button
lights, and the Home Screen reopens.
To turn phantom power OFF, press the F1 [OFF]
button.
CAUTION
Use the MASTER LEVEL knob to turn the unit’s
output volume down before turning phantom
power ON or OFF. Depending on the mic, a loud
noise could occur, damaging equipment and
harming people’s hearing.
Do not connect or disconnect a mic when phantom
power is ON.
Turn phantom power ON only when using a
condenser microphone that requires phantom
power.
Do not supply phantom power to an unbalanced
dynamic microphone.
Supplying phantom power to some types of ribbon
microphones could break them. Do not supply
phantom power to a ribbon microphone if you are
in doubt.
Battery consumption is faster when phantom
power is ON.
